XR700 Slow speedtest

I got my XR700 gaming router with firmware version 1.0.1.2 today and my speed test is about half as what they should be. 

 

I have QOS turned off and only get about 400 Mbs down over LAN

 

When I connect directly to the cable modem I get 900 Mbs down over LAN

      Also maybe Hard Reset the modem and or check the dBmV levels on your modem; they should be within -7 to +7 dBmV.

        Is this over WiFi or directly connected through ethernet? If QoS is off then DumaOS shouldn't be the cause. May need to give the router the MAC address of your previous router.
